                             PRICELESS


You are PRICELESS! Sometimes people may try and judge you by your profession or your material possessions. But those things do not determine your worth. People may judge you by the car you drive, but that car does not move until you get in it. People may judge you by the clothes you wear but those clothes are only pieces of thread hanging in your closet until you put them on and make them look good. Yep that’s right I said YOU make them look good. One day I was at the store with my sister and she saw a dress that she said would look good on one of our friends. When I looked up I immediately agreed. Our friend would look so cute in that dress!! But the funny part is that my sister and I both would have originally said it was a horrible looking dress. But we had a particular friend that would have made it look good. Honestly I can’t think of anyone else it would have looked good on. Lol. So the point I’m making here is that our individual worth has nothing to do with material things. But their value has everything to do with us! Whether you’re driving a luxury car or riding a bus, the fact still remains that neither one of them has any potential of going anywhere until someone gets in it. Never let anyone, including yourself; judge your value by what you possess. You were made for a specific purpose. You are a crucial asset not an option. You are supplementary, not secondary. You are priceless!





Your value surpasses what your mind conceives greatness to be.


You are priceless


I know your worth has been distorted by people that couldn’t even afford it. Let me explain what I mean. There were some people that weren’t equipped to help you reach your full potential that came in your life and were influential. But it’s time to be above the negative influence, it’s time to be wise, it’s time to have prudence. Believe me when I say:


You are priceless

OPPORTUNITY

We often look at obstacles as misfortune instead of opportunity. But that is the wrong thinking, according to Ephesians 3:20.

When your plans don't work out, it is an opportunity to trust God for something better. Take that opportunity.

When something hurts you but doesn't kill you, it is an opportunity to get stronger. Take that opportunity.

When someone makes a conscience effort to tear you down, use you or mistreat you in anyway, it is an opportunity to ask God for His full intention for your life as well as their life to come to past, because God has given us all an equal opportunity to receive Him and what he has for us.

Take that opportunity!!!

Sometimes a setback is really a set up. What we think is messing our plans up, is exactly what God has planned.



Ephesians 3:20-21

20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
